Hi Arthur,

Yes, what a loss, I remember his back-up strips for Doctor Who Weekly done at age 16 or 17? amazing. 2000AD and The Preacher of course, what a talent and sorely missed.
Nice acknowledgement here.

Best Wishes,

Andy.

Hullo Andy,

Steve was having work published while still in his teens. Met him at Society of Strip Illustrations meetings long ago when he was a young turk attracting attention for the quality of his work and popularity for his outgoing personality.
His going is a loss.

Best,
Arthur
